for the record there is a lot of nuances when it comes to this discussion, but I've noticed some patterns regardless so I'm sharing what I've noticed here
the really radfem sides of the tme/tma discourse are incredibly anti-masculine. Especially when I see posts from someone who is claiming that all men are predatory and therefore trans men are predatory and should die. Or the claim that trans men don't have any valid experiences with misogyny that I see radfems say.
and honestly? The other extreme side falls to the same takes in a different way. I've seen the really extreme anti-radfem side making the claim that trans women are predatory because they have a penis (not all trans women have a penis, but the posts I see usually make wide generalizations that they do).
This is anti-masculinity that overlaps with androqueerphobia, homoandrophobia/andro-monosexism/andro-amatonormativity*, transgynephobia, exorsexism, and varsexism.
(*Because often, these people will act as if queer men have no unique form of oppression, and that the only oppression they could face has to be in relation to transmisogyny.)
My thoughts on the TME/TMA discourse can basically be summarized here [link]. I think its just ridiculous that it basically became an "identity."
I prefer terms like these [link]. Terms like transmasculinized, transfeminized, cisfeminized, cismasculinized, binarized, etc. Terms that don't rely on one specific type of oppressive framework (ie; treating transmisogyny as the "main framework" for gender-related oppression.)
